Telangana High Court Dismisses Divorce Appeal Citing Lack of Evidence
A man in India tried to get a divorce, saying his wife was mean.
He said she was difficult, argued a lot, and didn't do housework.
The court looked at all the evidence.
They said that a few problems over a long time aren't enough to grant a divorce based on cruelty.
The man didn't have proof to back up his claims, so the court sided with the lower court and denied the divorce.

The appeal was based on claims of cruelty by the wife.
The court cited a Supreme Court ruling on marital cruelty.
The couple married in February 2014, and the case began in 2017.
The court found the husband's testimony unsupported by evidence.
